Mine are 32 ozs. Thinking of getting either a Manners EHS or a Mcmillan Sako Hunter Edge. I really like the Sako design, but IIRC there was a thread where a couple of guys had problems with Mcmillan's inletting for the Tikkas... Manners claims 22-24 oz for their EHS-T and I believe Mcmillan claims similar for the Edge (depending on model).
It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so...
Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe.
Stupidity has no average...

I've weighed three different T3 stocks on UPS scales. The factory wooden hunter stock and the plastic stock both weighed 28 oz. The B&C medalist stock weighed 34 oz.

Mojo', I have a Sako Hunter on order, hopefully they worked out the inletting bugs by now.

I didn't weigh T3 Lite stock when I had it off but noted right away it felt very light. Even a McMillan Edge in one of the larger stocks will weigh in at 26-28 ounces. I had asked McMillan about a Remington BDL in an Edge and they gave me that "approximately 28 ounces" figure.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

The super lite 30-06 I sold would put 3 168 TSX in a .75 hole at 200 yards, it was a Bass Pro Super "lite" blued fluted barrel. Sold it to buy my Forbes, I am still working on loads but it still doesn't shoot as good as the T3.

How much weight do you think it would shed with a McMillan Edge?
I'd have to weigh the factory, but I am guessing around 8oz. Mistem has a 30-06 Superlight in a Edge thats 6#9oz, scoped. Put that in your Ti and smoke it....
